Student creativity development: The role of teacher innovation and intrapreneurial school culture

Abstract

The entrepreneurial leadership of school principals is a top priority for developing teacher innovation. Creativity and innovation in economic learning also need to be developed in an intrapreneurial-based culture. This study aims to investigate the interconnectedness between school principals’ intrapreneurial leadership and teacher Innovation, and examine the role of creativity and school culture of public high school teachers in Indonesia. This research was conducted using a survey method in three public high schools in Jakarta of Indonesia. A simple random sampling method was applied to identify the participants of this research, which comprised 100 teachers. Teacher innovation is measured through developing methods, strategy, services, and opportunities. Principal intrapreneurship is measured through leadership daring to take risks, providing opportunity, being proactive, and developing technology. The school culture variables are also measured in values, applicable norms, tradition, and confidence. The data followed validity and reliability analysis, and it was tested using multiple linear regression. The results of the study indicate that the principal’s intrapreneurial leadership and school culture positively affect teacher innovation, either partially or simultaneously. Therefore, for the development of teacher innovation, there is a need to develop principal’s Intrapreneurial Leadership with risk-related courage, as well as school culture on compliance with applicable norms in work organizations.
